The Basilica
San Marco Cathedral Venice, Italy
The Rabbit
− p(z) = z2+(−0.1226+0.7449i)
The Corabbit
− p(z) = z2+(−0.1226−0.7449i)
− p(z) = z2 + i

hmmm... let’s see that again.
Which quadratic polynomials can be mated?
- Theorem. (Tan Lei, Rees, Shishikura) Let p : z 7! z2 +c1
and q : z 7! z2 + c2 be postcritically finite. Then p and q can be mated if and only if c1 and c2 do not belong to conjugate limbs of the Mandelbrot Set.
